Hi,

I’m converting project from Word Automation to Aspose.Word. In the project, MoveRight(Cell) and TypeText are heavily used to move around the table to insert data.
For example:

Name Quantity Unit Price Total
(+Item+)

I will find the tag (+Item+) and replace with the item name. Then i will move to next cell to insert quantity, unit price, total accordingly. If i have another item, i will using the command “MoveRight(Cell)” and it will automatically create a new row appending to that table.

How can i achieve this using Aspose.Word. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi Yew,

Thanks for your inquiry.

You can use DocumentBuilder.MoveToCell method if you need to move the cursor to a table cell in the current section. After moving the cursor to specified Cell, you can insert Document elements there. You can also get a reference to current Cell by using DocumentBuilder.CurrentNode,** iterate through all Cells in current Row and change their DOM properties using the following code:

// Iterate through all cells in the row
foreach(Cell cell in row.Cells)
{
    int cellIndex = row.Cells.IndexOf(cell);
    // Get the plain text content of this cell.
    string cellText = cell.ToString(SaveFormat.Text).Trim();
    // Print the content of the cell.
    Console.WriteLine("\t\tContents of Cell:{0} = \"{1}\"", cellIndex, cellText);
}

I hope, this helps.

Best regards,
